Plant Research and Terrestrial Systems

Plant Research

Throughout the world, plants are the most important foundation for feeding a constantly growing global population. They are renewable raw materials that are increasingly in demand. Plants are also a source of renewable energy, and thus contribute to the energy mix of the future.

Terrestrial Systems

Land use and climate change bring about long-term changes to terrestrial ecosystems. The increasing demand for food and energy has necessitated the intensification of land use and agriculture, resulting in greater strain on fertile arable land and water resources.

Simulation data for Europe

Groundwater table, temperature, and precipitation: Jülich supercomputers calculate current terrestrial data for North Rhine-Westphalia (Germany) and Europe. The videos created by the HPSC Terrsys research initiative can be subscribed to via a YouTube channel.
